Qualcomm, a multinational company, dominates the Indian mobile phone chip market. It works with most of the major telcos and manufacturers of mobile devices. In an interview with Surajeet Das Gupta, Rajen Vagadia, president of Qualcomm India & SAARC, discusses the development of the 5G ecosystem and consumer case uses across brands.
The Income-tax department announced late Friday that corporate tax collections increased 34% in the first four months of the current fiscal year compared to the same period in 2021–22. This increase is proof that the “simplified tax regime with low rates and no exemptions” has delivered on its promise, according to the department.
Two more proxy advisory firms have followed Institutional Investor Advisory Services (IiAS) in urging shareholders to vote against Vijay Shekhar Sharma’s reappointment as Paytm’s CEO and MD. Both Stakeholders Empowerment Services (SES) and InGovern Research Services have advised against voting in favour of the resolution by the public shareholders.
Despite the fact that the company’s merchant and personal loans businesses are fully compliant with the new norms, analysts say Paytm’s “buy now, pay later” (BNPL) business may need some operational adjustments to do so. Currently, loans under Paytm Postpaid are not deposited into the customer’s account directly. These are instead transferred to a nodal account, where the payments company transfers them to the merchant’s account.

Ratan Tata, industry titan and national icon, dies at 86
Ratan Tata, who ran Tata Sons for more than 20 years as chairman, died at a Mumbai hospital.
Ratan Tata, the chairman emeritus of Tata Sons, has died, the group announced in a statement on Wednesday. He was 86. Ratan Tata, who ran the conglomerate for more than 20 years as chairman, had been undergoing intensive care in a Mumbai hospital since Monday.
“It is with a profound sense of loss that we bid farewell to Mr. Ratan Naval Tata, a truly uncommon leader whose immeasurable contributions have shaped not only the Tata Group but also the very fabric of our nation,” said N Chandrasekaran, Chairman, Tata Sons, in a late night statement.
On Monday, the industrialist had in a social media post dismissed speculation surrounding his health and had said he was undergoing routine medical investigations due to his age.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to Ratan Tata, calling him a visionary business leader, compassionate soul, extraordinary human being.
“Ratan Tata endeared himself to people, thanks to his humility, kindness, unwavering commitment to making society better,” PM Modi said in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
After graduating with a degree in architecture at Cornell University, he returned to India and in 1962 began working for the group his great-grandfather had founded nearly a century earlier.
He worked in several Tata companies, including Telco, now Tata Motors Ltd, as well as Tata Steel Ltd, later making his mark by erasing losses and increasing market share at group unit National Radio & Electronics Company.
In 1991, he took the helm of the conglomerate when his uncle J.R.D. Tata stepped down – the passing of the baton coming just as India embarked on radical reforms that opened up its economy to the world and ushered in an era of high growth.
Under Tata’s leadership, the group launched the Tata Nano, the world’s cheapest car, and expanded its software services arm, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), into a global IT leader.
Tata stepped down as chairman in 2012 but was later named chairman emeritus of Tata Sons and other group companies, including Tata Motors and Tata Steel. He briefly returned as interim chairman in 2016 during a leadership dispute.
